lol - this is why soap operas have always fascinated me. SUCH drama and all so craftily handled so that each crisis segues perfectly into the next. when i was little, i think there were 3 or 4 soaps and each was 1/2 hour long - my mom used to watch 2 of them while we ate lunch. then, more and more began to air on more and more stations and each program increased to an hour in length. many devout followers quit watching as the fantasy of other's lives began to take up more time than living the reality of their own. diane Diane Silver-Strasser Silstra German Shepherds _Skatiebug'z_ (http://skatiebugz.shutterfly.com/) The online store for everything German Shepherd and then some! _http://skatiebugz.blogspot.com_ (http://skatiebugz.blogspot.com/) Skater's Blog In a message dated 7/19/2010 2:35:12 P.M.

I support the GSDCA, the AKC, and the members. I will not give my opinion of the litigation on this List, but since I was mentioned six times, and the List was mentioned more than that, I would suggest anyone who intends to vote in the next election and has the best interest of our club in mind, read the complaint. While it is true that it is easy to make an allegation, proof is what is required at trial. It is by a preponderance of the evidence, meaning more likely than not. Each of us has the right to know what was going on, and then decide how to deal with it. Being educated on the facts and allegations can avoid these problems and one theme that repeats over and over is the problems caused by a lack of knowledge. It is up to each of us to learn what we can. If there are any personal questions, I will do the best I can to respond. But, I do not want to be involved with litigation against my club or my friends, or by my friends. I am just suggesting that a reading of the complaint will ruin your day, waste about two hours of your time, and cause you to think. Not that there is anything wrong with that.
